Independent Park

The 6.5-acre Independent Park, 208 North Street, sports complex is home to the city's main baseball field. The complex includes dugouts, bleachers, fencing, a portable restroom and picnic tables. Also on site is the Tawas City Community Library and an open play field. Deteriorating tennis courts at the complex were replaced with a basketball court in 2008. In 2015, the baseball field received improvements. In 2016, the library parking lot was expanded that is adjacent to the baseball field and a new sign was installed. In 2017, the basketball court and two pickleball courts were striped.
